If permanently moored in salt water or fresh water,
your boat will collect marine growth on its bottom.
This will detract from the boat’s beauty and greatly
affect its performance. There are two methods of
preventing this:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and
scrub the bottom with a bristle brush and a
solution of soap and water.
• Paint the hull below the waterline with a good
grade of antifouling paint.
DO NOT paint the
engine drive surfaces.
NOTE:
There are EPa regulations regarding bottom
paint application. Consult your Baja
®
dealer for
proper application methods.

Stainless steel and alloy fittings should be cleaned
with soap and water or household glass cleaner.
Remove rust spots as soon as possible with a
brass, silver or chrome cleaner. Irreversible pitting
will develop under rust that remains for any period
of time. never use an abrasive like sandpaper or
steel wool on stainless. These may actually cause
rust. To help protect the stainless, we recommend
the use of a good car wax.

When instruments are exposed to a saltwater
environment, salt crystals may form on the bezel
and the plastic covers. These salt crystals should
be removed with a soft, damp cloth; never use
abrasives or rough, dirty cloths to wipe plastic parts.
Mild household detergents or plastic cleaners can
be used to keep the instruments bright and clean.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual Packet for instructions
and warranty information.

Never use a dry cloth or duster or glass cleaning
solutions on acrylic.
To clean acrylic, first flood it with water to wash off
as much dirt as possible. next, use your bare hand,
with plenty of water, to feel and dislodge any caked
dirt or mud. a soft, grit-free cloth may then be used
with a nonabrasive soap or detergent. a soft sponge,
kept clean for this purpose, is excellent. Blot dry with
a clean damp chamois.
grease and oil may be removed from acrylic
with kerosene, hexane, white (not aviation or
ethyl) gasoline or aliphatic naphtha (no aromatic
content).
Do not use solvents such as acetone, silicone
spray, benzine, carbon tetrachloride, fire
extinguisher fluid, dry cleaning fluid or lacquer
thinner on acrylic, since they attack the
surface.
Remove fine scratches with fine automotive acrylic
rubbing and polishing compounds.

Do not fold or store any of the canvas pieces
while wet.
all canvas should be rolled or folded
when dry and stored in a clean, dry place. for clear
vinyl pieces, the recommended methods for storage
are rolling or laying down flat. The clear vinyl should
never be folded or creased as cracking will result.
To protect the clear vinyl from rubbing against itself
while rolled or stored flat, place a piece of very
soft, nonabrasive cloth between the pieces. If the
surface of the clear vinyl becomes scratched, the
canvas manufacturer has provided a canvas care
sheet located in your Owner’s Manual Packet. When
storing the rear (aft) curtain, fold the canvas over
the clear vinyl window (do not fold clear vinyl), then
roll or store flat.
